That she HAD to know about Jamal Khashoggi in advance and very likely in time to DO SOMETHING sends absolute chills up my spine.

Consider that, as Governor of South Carolina, she condemned tens of thousands of us to bankruptcy and early death by refusing the Medicaid expansion when the ACA was passed. The racist Confederate flag flying on the Statehouse grounds? It would still be flying had those people not been murdered in their church. Also consider that she spent her entire time at the UN, where she supported bombing women and children in Yemen, and pulling out of the Paris accord and the Iran nuclear deal. The Khashoggi murder? Yeah, she didn't care.

ass kisser and will be the last rat on the ship when it goes down. Haley is more conniving. She gave the impression when she left that she was disturbed by the current fiasco and now she's sending flowers and chocolates to Squatter 45. She might be lining herself up for a fast presidential run if the con happens to be removed or setting herself up for 2024. She would probably be a better running mate for him, but she might be too savvy to risk a run alongside him since there's a reasonable chance he'll experience an embarrassing loss. In the end, she's in it for herself and will do whatever it takes.

They are equally contemptible. The only thing that scares me is how many people continue to allow them to be conned by these sorts of grifters. Which is what both of them are and always have been.

She has figured out that stealing the cheese from the other rats is allowed and might win her the game. She hasn’t figured out that the biggest rat will bite off her head if she goes for his cheese.
